HOW TO GET AROUND? ARRIVING VIA TALLINN AIRPORT: The buses to Tartu depart in every full hour (and, in some cases, even more often). The travel time between the two towns is approximately 2 hours and 20 minutes (180 km). Note that this only applies to the buses departing at full hours (the LUX Express buses). The Map of the Airport (LENNUJAAM) Bus stop in Tallinn Airport The buses leave from Tallinn Airport (Tallinna Lennujaam) to Tartu Bus Station (Tartu Bussijaam). The bus stop at the airport is located just outside the ground level exit. The stops for inner city (if you would like to start visiting Tallinn first) lines are situated outside the ground level exit as well. The tickets can be purchased 15 days in advance via online: http://www.tpilet.ee/en/timetable/tallinn/tartu Alternatively, they can be bought on-site from the bus driver or ticket machine (if you have enough time, we recommend the latter option). In this case, there might be a slight chance that the buses are sold out. Tallinn Airport Arriving in Tartu by bus. The bus station in Tartu is right in the town center (and right next to Hotel Dorpat, Tartu and Science Centre AHHAA). The distance between the bus station and the Science Centre AHHAA is 200 metres.

Transforming Measures and Values in Estonian Library Practice
World Library and Information Congress: 69th IFLA General Conference and Council 1-9 August 2003, Berlin Code Number: 103-E Meeting: 122. Library Theory and Research Simultaneous Interpretation: - Past decade – transforming measures and values in Estonian library practice Prof. Aira Lepik Tallinn Pedagogical University Tallinn, Estonia Toomas Liivamägi Tartu University Library Tartu, Estonia Abstract The changing information environment sets new challenges for libraries. Libraries as mediators of information can act more effectively considering the demands, expectations and needs for library services by planning their strategies and tactics for their services in the information society, to make them more relevant in the provision of information to their communities. The goal of this paper is to give an overview of opportunities of how libraries can use the process of planning to establish their behaviour in the market economy and to introduce methods of marketing library performance. The paper is based on the study “Performance measurement and evaluation of research libraries in Estonia” (funded from Estonian Science Foundation Grant 4039; 2000 – 2002) and carried out as a joint activity of Tallinn Pedagogical University, the National Library of Estonia and Tartu University Library. The study focused on the possibilities to use the analysis of the statistical data of 1995–2002 of four Estonian major research libraries – The National Library, Estonian Academic Library, Tartu University Library and Tallinn Technical University Library. The survey focused on library resources (collections), library services (visits, loans), librarians (education and qualification), and financial resources (income and expenditure). The study indicates that research libraries can function successfully as an information environment for Estonian science, culture, economy and education.

The Path to the FAIR HANSA FAIR for More Than 600 Years, a Unique Network HANSA of Merchants Existed in Northern Europe
The path to the FAIR HANSA FAIR For more than 600 years, a unique network HANSA of merchants existed in Northern Europe. The cooperation of this consortium of merchants for the promotion of their foreign trade gave rise to an association of cities, to which around 200 coastal and inland cities belonged in the course of time. The Hanseatic League in the Middle Ages These cities were located in an area that today encom- passes seven European countries: from the Dutch Zui- derzee in the west to Baltic Estonia in the east, and from Sweden‘s Visby / Gotland in the north to the Cologne- Erfurt-Wroclaw-Krakow perimeter in the south. From this base, the Hanseatic traders developed a strong economic in uence, which during the 16th century extended from Portugal to Russia and from Scandinavia to Italy, an area that now includes 20 European states. Honest merchants – Fair Trade? Merchants, who often shared family ties to each other, were not always fair to producers and craftsmen. There is ample evidence of routine fraud and young traders in far- ung posts who led dissolute lives. It has also been proven that slave labor was used. ̇ ̆ Trading was conducted with goods that were typically regional, and sometimes with luxury goods: for example, wax and furs from Novgorod, cloth, silver, metal goods, salt, herrings and Chronology: grain from Hanseatic cities such as Lübeck, Münster or Dortmund 12th–14th Century - “Kaufmannshanse”. Establishment of Hanseatic trading posts (Hanseatic kontors) with common privi- leges for Low German merchants 14th–17th Century - “Städtehanse”. Cooperation between the Hanseatic cit- ies to defend their trade privileges and Merchants from di erent cities in di erent enforce common interests, especially at countries formed convoys and partnerships.
